A Complicite Workshop
’Moving Colour’
with
Catherine Alexander
5th October 2025
10-5pm | Sadler’s Wells, London
This workshop is grounded in Jacques Lecoq’s extraordinary work on colour from both the theatre training and the Laboratoire d’Etudes de Mouvement. The day will also explore devising tasks exploring colour which have been used in the Complicité rehearsal room.
Working with colour is one of the most elusive, subjective and beautiful parts of the Lecoq training: it leads us into a place of personal perception, uncertainty and abstraction which can be as challenging as it is useful.
It can be helpful to think how colour imprints itself onto our self in everyday life. Humans can perceive up to two million different shades of colour and this perception has been key to our survival. Colour makes us ‘feel’ and ‘moves’ us, but we all have different cultural and natural associations which are unique to us. How do we start to find a common language with colour and use this to collaborate as theatre makers?
